Jays are playing for 2013-2015 now. Afterwards? Hard to say, but I wouldn't bet on them.

Why not? Anthony Gose, Travis D'Arnaud, Noah Syndergaard are all the top 3 guys in the system and they haven't gone anywhere. That's not even taking into account that Drew Hutchison and Brett Lawrie are still here. The future still looks pretty bright (to me at least), especially considering the apparent willingness to back the team with a salary.

I'm not making any proclamations like best team ever, like Boston did in 2010, but I don't see why the long-term future is in shambles now with this deal.

You guys just absolutely rapped Miami but you still cant help yourself but to be butthurt against Sox fans. Nobody said your future is in shambles. The reality that most people are ignoring is that you took on a lot of money in that deal which could hurt in 3 years when a guy like Reyes is constantly hurt or starts to decline.

Who would be buthurt towards the last Place team in the AL east? The Reyes contract could hurt, but one over priced contract isn't the end of the world that some are making it out to be.
